S06, Ep 05: Believe in You, then Do The Work, featuring Chuck Herrick

Many of us face challenges early on that shape us and could define us. But how we react to those forces and experiences is what truly makes us the people we are.

Life is about choices. Choosing a fork in the road and then understanding the related consequences is a part of life. If you can harness the power, positive or negative, of a given life experience, then one can move forward in the direction of their choosing.

Our guest today has overcome many obstacles in life and used them as stepping stones for his next phase of life.

S06, Ep 03: Giving Healthcare a Destination, featuring David Mair

Whether it’s choosing a doctor, hospital or other medical provider, or paying for high cost prescription medications, health care is front and center in most of our lives these days. People are looking for solutions to spread their financial resources without sacrificing quality or skipping necessary care. It can feel like a rat race with no way out.

One of those solutions is something many of us are not aware of, something called destination medical care, the idea of traveling to medical center other than the closest one to come up with the best outcome, timely access to care and manageable costs. Where this was once seen as only for wealthy, individual patients, it’s now become a practical option for companies trying to manage benefit costs and individual patient alike.

Our guest today has taken this concept to the next level and not only made good care available to more people he’s found ways to make it affordable, available and practical.

S06 Ep 01: Discovering Family Through Writing featuring Fred Zuker

Our family history is a major part of who we are. Being able to record or write down that history is a special thing.

An important and impactful part of that process is capturing the memories of our senior family members. Seeing the past through their eyes as recalled in the stories they tell, makes life from another time come to life. It also helps cement a bond between generations that can’t be done in other ways.

Our guest today calls his experience working with his father to write his dad’s memoir one of the most inspiring times of his life.

S05 Ep 10: Creating Opportunities for Women in Business featuring Dana Cooper and Darlene Ellison

Finding and creating opportunities is a challenge for any business owner. It can be especially challenging for women business owners. Networking, coaching, strategy and learning negotiating skills are constant challenges – especially when you’re just starting out.
Building a network of trusted advisors can help any business. And as a business owner, you build various alliances such as a CPA, a lawyer and a banker. Did you know your banker specifically can play a critical role in connecting you with other business people, key community leaders and activities to get you involved in your local community? Well, they can! And my guests today are at the forefront of creating and offering up networking and business opportunities for women in business through their community bank!
